About this worksheet
The bald eagle is not really bald, and this short 1st grade passage starts from that fact. Students read that Americans chose the bird long ago to stand for freedom and strength, and that it appears on some coins and money. Three questions ask what kind of animal it is, the two colors of its feathers, and where else you can see it. Last, students circle the eagle next to a brown bear and a red robin. An answer page closes the three pages, and the sheet links to the C3 Framework indicator D3.1.K-2.
